EAT > Johnny Vince & Sam’s, Melbourne (10/20)

Any new Italian restaurant opening on Carlton's Lygon Street needs to have something special to be noticed. The premise for Johnny, Vince and Sam's restaurant is to capture the daggy cool of 60s and 70s vintage with some classic Italian dishes and there are aspects of this that are excellent, but on the day we…

EAT > Atria, Melbourne (15/20)

I am going to admit it. I have this built in bias about restaurants that sit on the top of towers featuring 'an amazing view'. I this comes from visiting a number of revolving restaurants around the Australia - such as 'The Summit', now 'O Dining' (at the top of Australia…

EAT > Bellota Wine Bar & Food (18/20)

Last week I was back eating in one of my very favourite restaurants and I realised that it was also one of the first restaurant reviews written for Almanak, so I thought it needed an update. Needless to say we had another outstanding meal and brilliant wine. In full disclosure Bellota used to be…

EAT > No. 100 Flinders Lane (15/20)

Melbournes Flinders Lane is full of fine dining options so there is an incredible amount of choice available and No. 100 is possibly the newest option that is just a little different from the usual choices. Firstly it is small - there are only 20 seats in the restaurant and while there are…

EAT > Casa De Vinos (Melbourne)

Saturday afternoon wandering the streets of South Melbourne looking for the right place to stop for lunch and a glass of wine, Bellota was fully booked and the South Melbourne Markets in full swing (which meant La Central Spanish Bodega was also out of the question). Wandering up Coventry Street we noticed Casa De Vinos…

EAT > Ishizuka (Melbourne)

It's not easy to find Ishizuka, there are few discreet signs near the street entrance, leading down a narrow lane, to a door and what looks like an apartment complex lift lobby. Take the lift to the basement and you are ushered into a very special room where you are elevated to one…

EAT > Aru Restaurant Melbourne – Brilliant Food in a Smart Room

This super smart (two hat) restaurant is in a slightly unlikely location on little Collins Street, just behind the Bourke Street Mall, an area more associated with smart cafe's and quick lunches than fine dining. But there is no question that Aru is fine dining. Opening in 2021 and immediately getting recognition for…

EAT > Amazing Bounty (closed)

Sadly since this article Bounty in BONNIE DOON has closed its doors, the chefs and staff have all moved on to new opportunities. Bounty Restaurant in Bonnie Doon is a very smart place both serene and delicious worth a visit for fine degustation dining. Bonnie Doon is a small town on the edge of Lake…
